Character Information

Temperament: Kairai
Kairai (a Touhou LW original) refers to lightning that occurs along the boundary of hot and cold air. This is Raiko's temperament as a futuristic tsukumogami who gained a new body after multiple reincarnations. Her magic helped reform her temperament by allowing controlled reincarnations into other tools. This temperament is specialized to resist Moon Essence and Star Essence.
Ability/Backstory: Capable of making anything follow a rhythm (Hidden)
The ability of Raiko Horikawa, the gadget lover (a Touhou LW original). Raiko's original ability became this one when it was concealed by the system of the Capital. However, due to miscellaneous adjustments and the construction of alternate functions, Raiko's musical capabilities are unchanged. This world's Raiko is the de-facto leader of the electronic instruments. She is a member of Xanadu, the secretive organization that hides in the Capital's Underground Waste Ward and is one of their key strategic assets. She is so valuable that Eiki, the official leader of Xanadu, as well as Wizard and Materializer, the great minds behind most of their operations, treat her as an equal. Maintaining one's existence and identity is far more difficult than humans can imagine. That's because humans, with their short lives, don't have to try and persist through countless eons. Instead, they pass on their knowledge and experience to the next generation and, in a sense, live many different lives through them. Youkai, being infinitely more resistant to change than humans, know how impossible a task it is to remain completely unchanged. You have to maintain your physical form, spirit, and even your data. It is believed that Raiko's spell can let tsukumogami transfer their existence to other objects, but perhaps it can also do something similar for the many other types of youkai in Xanadu...
